The recent determination of the local value of the Hubble constant by Riess et al, 2016 (hereafter R16) is now 3.3 sigma higher than the value derived from the most recent CMB anisotropy data provided by the Planck satellite in a LCDM model. Here we perform a combined analysis of the Planck and R16 results in an extended parameter space, varying simultaneously 12 cosmological parameters instead of the usual 6. We find that a phantom-like dark energy component, with effective equation of state $w=-1.29_{-0.12}^{+0.15}$ at 68 % c.l. can solve the current tension between the Planck dataset and the R16 prior in an extended $\Lambda$CDM scenario. On the other hand, the neutrino effective number is fully compatible with standard expectations. This result is confirmed when including cosmic shear data from the CFHTLenS survey and CMB lensing constraints from Planck. However, when BAO measurements are included we find that some of the tension with R16 remains, as also is the case when we include the supernova type Ia luminosity distances from the JLA catalog.

  1. Geometric Constraints on the Pre-Recombination Expansion History from the Hubble Tension

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Model-independent reconstruction shows that early-universe modifications resolving the Hubble tension exist at the background level, requiring a smooth ~15% pre-recombination expansion rate enhancement.

  2. Cosmological Viability of Exponential Infrared $f(T)$ Gravity

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Exponential IR f(T) gravity Model I alleviates Hubble tension but is disfavoured by combined Planck/ACT/SPT+DESI+Pantheon+ data; Model II is ruled out because background constraints force unphysical shifts in CMB parameters.

  3. Geometric Matching of Local Static Regions in Cosmological Spacetimes with an Evolving Lapse

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Embedding a static Schwarzschild interior into a GCT-FLRW exterior via Israel junction conditions produces a geometric consistency condition that coincides with the GCT background equations.

  4. What it takes to solve the Hubble tension through Modifications of Cosmological Recombination II: in light of ACT DR6 and DESI DR2

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Perturbative modifications to the electron mass m_e(z) resolve the Hubble tension with Planck+ACT CMB data but cannot when DESI DR2 BAO data are added due to lowered Omega_m.

  5. Early- and Late-Time Modifications to $\Lambda$CDM: Implications for the Hubble Tension

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    An extended model with decaying dark matter around equality and w0 dark energy yields H0 ≈ 70 km/s/Mpc from Planck+ACT+DESI data, reducing Hubble tension to ~2.2σ while producing Bayesian evidence comparable to ΛCDM.

  6. The Hubble tension: A decade review

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    A review summarizing the Hubble tension as a persistent crisis and discussing resolutions via interacting dark energy models that combine early-time and late-time modifications.

  7. In the Realm of the Hubble tension $-$ a Review of Solutions

    astro-ph.CO 2021-03 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    A review summarizing the Hubble constant tension and proposed solutions from new physics that restore agreement between Planck CMB data and local H0 measurements within 1-2 sigma.
